CURRENT FACTORY SYSTEM GUIDE

Match the screen currently in your vehicle

Choose by the original systemโ€”not the upgraded 12-inch screen. For F-150, 2015 uses No SYNC/SYNC1/SYNC2, while 2016โ€“2020 uses No SYNC/SYNC1/SYNC3. Super Duty products show No SYNC, SYNC1, and SYNC3; Expedition shows SYNC1 and SYNC3 only.

Ford Blue package required. This factory system does not have a reusable SYNC3 APIM. Choose Ford Blue Plug & Play or SYNC4 Ready; the required programmed module and conversion hardware add $200.

Check every statement that matters. We will recommend the lowest package that satisfies all selected needs.

FITMENT & CORE PROGRAM

Confirm your vehicle

We use these details to prepare the correct plug-and-play hardware and programming.

VINs never contain I, O, or Q. Decode checks model and year; dash color, console, and factory system still require visual confirmation. VIN decoding sends the VIN to the U.S. NHTSA vPIC service.
Recommended if you are unsure: upload one clear powered-on photo showing the current screen, vents, HVAC panel, trim color, and center-console area.

Selected dash: confirm the option above using the guide.

DASH CONFIGURATION GUIDE

Choose the trim we will ship

Front jump-seat trucks use a different lower trim piece and add $250. Chrome Grey is commonly found on Platinum, Lariat, and Limited interiors, but always confirm against the photo rather than trim name alone.

APIM CASHBACK

Get up to $150 back

$0 estimated

Working SYNC3 navigation APIM: $150. Working SYNC3 non-navigation APIM: $100. No SYNC/base-radio hardware, SYNC1 modules, and SYNC2 modules: $0. No SYNC and SYNC1 include the programmed SYNC3 APIM plus a dedicated power harness and add $200; SYNC2 includes the required programmed APIM and adds $150.

This factory system has no reusable SYNC3 APIM. A Ford Blue package with the programmed module and conversion hardware adds $200; no APIM trade-in credit applies.

Cashback eligibility and timing

Cashback is issued to the original payment method only after the returned APIM passes inspection. Non-working, water-damaged, corroded, opened, connector-damaged, or incomplete modules receive $0. We provide a prepaid return label. Approved cashback is issued within 30 days after InCarElectronic receives the returned APIM and confirms eligibility. The estimated amount shown here does not reduce the checkout price and is not a guaranteed refund.
